Washington correspondence: Every
little while, when some appointment is
made that Senator Beck does not relish,
he strolls over on the republican side OF
the senate, bends over Senator Sawyer's
desk and Whispers, "It's salt agein, say
Sawyer; but l like it," Both senators
laugh uproariously ct the remark, which
is q by-word between them, and the
Scotch Kentuckian goes back to his seat
somewhat reeonciled to his adversIty in
the matter of appointments. The story
which explains this pleasantly is one OF
Senator Sawyer's. He came down town
one night early in the present adminie-
tration and found Senator Book and
Senator Harris oondoling each other
over the presidents perverse selection
of men to hold office in Kentucky and
Tennessee.
"Well, how do you like this admins
tration. any way ?" asked the Wiscon-
sin senator.
I'VE like it better than the last one,
replied Beck.
II know how you like it," said Saw
yer. "Pil tell You story that illustrates
our CASE. If not, you've got to own up
to just what you think OF your president,
